Admiring Armstrong

by The Queen   Mar 9, 2013


No mountain that's high
and space, impenetrable
for a farmer, an astronaut
and a common folk alike.

Spontaneous
like the meteors,
like a stream of fragments
crossing the black void,
all that he was,
and more.

Never the kind that will panic
be it a giant black ball
as dark as coal,
or a mission going
down in flames.

People who say
it cannot be done,
should not interrupt
those who are doing it;
nor abhor and detest,
nor stigmatize the future as -
never was.

All our dreams can come true -
if we have the courage
to pursue them,
and a mind that
does not falter
in times of danger,
nor at the hour
of our death.
